CONT

Polypore des brebis. [...] Cette espèce ne ressemble à aucune autre. Son chapeau blanchâtre jaunissant, irrégulier, souvent crevassé et lié aux voisins, ses pores très petits, blancs, puis jaune citron, sa croissance en cercles dans les sapinières de montagne sont en effet des caractéristiques qui la définissent clairement.
